If you mean that replying to HTML e-mail thing [I think that was you that asked] there are two Apple Scripts that do that, one if you have BBEdit [not light] and one that does it without that. Someone else will have to give you the web-site where the script archive is. > 2. The ability to send to more than one contact when >selecting them from Now and Up to Date/ Contact. Just my thoughts. I am not familiar with those programs [that is I know their names but not how they work] but you can send to bunches of people in two ways in Power Mail. You can make a group, which is aliases of addresses in your address book already; or you can make a folder in which case [I think] the addresses are only in that folder. Both of these are accessed via the Address book, the double face is for groups and the folder, not surprisingly, is for folders. Also you can synchronize with the Apple Address book. -- Barbara Needham

I understand. I'm a fairly new PM user so I don't know how responsive the developers are to making changes to the software. One of the things that I'm really impressed with PM is the speed of searches. Very impressive. There are a few things I would like to see: 1. the ability to handle HTML in messages. 2. The ability to send to more than one contact when selecting them from Now and Up to Date/ Contact. Just my thoughts. Fred -- 667 TiBook G4 OS X 10.2.5 768 MB Ram PM 4.1.2
Re: New mail alert?
I got a little freebee which sits in the menubar - mail ticker (got it from version tracker). it will display a little icon in the menu bar (osX) with amount of new messages (resettable) and if I click on it I see the exact amount per account and title/sender. This way I KNOW I don't have to go and read if it tells me 17 new messages from my list account (i.e. [EMAIL PROTECTED]), but if it comes from my business account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), I can instantly open PM (via mail ticker) and get the message then. It also helps me in those (for me very rare) situations that I have to delete a message from the server, as it allows me to do this. Great utility. Only drawback (for me) - sometimes it will crash/hang while checking my 3rd account (out of 4) and thus block the popaccount. quitting and relaunching handles that, and nothing I will complain about for the amount of service I've gotten already out of it as a freebee. ---marlyse >I think what people want is a number of new mails received such as >Apple's Mail does.

Re: ISP won't recognize powermail
Larry, thanks for answering. Don't know why but it just started working, right after I got around to loading in my address book. Not knowing why is almost as bad as it not working. Still wrestling with importing about a zillion files. Otherwise just getting down to business, learning what I can and can't do with PM.

Re: Attachment wierdness
well, it's a workaround and not ideal: when forwarding, forward a copy to yourself. it will come back to you and you will need to remember that you have seen it already and not to reforward it and blablabla. not elegant. guess the basic question is, why so complicated and forwarding to an archive account? why not just an apple script which sets it to a specific account and filters it into its own folder right where you are? when you forward, it does not quote btw, it only quotes when you hit reply. but it does put in a FWD and the header/footer info of begin/end forwarded message. most easy way would be to have only the archive account download and DELETE emails from the server. So you just get the files, and attachments, i.e. download them but no forwarding, nothing. When you are on your archive system, you download AND delete the messages from the server. can be set in the preferences. even set to delete messages older than etc. I use this system with my powerbook and desktop machine and that works well. ---marlyse -original message follows- >Well, they are indeed gone..
